Weekend trip to Whistler

Terri and Paul are in Whistler for one week to go skiing. They offered us to stay at there place for the weekend, thanks a lot.

Saturday we skied in bounds. Terri, Kerstin, Kezz ?, omp 2

the slowboarders and Kerstin in the back, probably watching how Seppel is racing down

 

After skiing we went to a bar to have some food. Paul sitting in between three heaters.

 

Next day we met Dylan and went back country skiing. You can buy a ticket for 40$, catch one ride up and go out of bounds. It was quite windy, up to 100 km/h they said. My pole was almost horizontal when it hung on my wrist.

Kerstin, her first powder turns.

not bad

 

 

Since we didn't want to go all the way back up to Flute we skied down via Singing Pass. We hiked this trail up once in summer.

 

the moon came out

Later on there was a Fire and Ice show in Whistler. The guy is doing a front flip, pretty sick.

 

 

The team. Terri, Seppel, Ben, Kezz, Kerstin, Bike Mike and ???

 

 

Family Howley having a beer after all the stress with the kids. One pitcher each.

 

 

Since we live in on the coast we have ice from the inside in our car, strange.

 

Thanks so much Terri and Paul and nice meeting you others form Aussie.
